EG3 depth is on the simple list? can EG1/2 depth also be on this list, and
used together to implement velocity->volume?

i dunno.... i think i can see vel->detune being useful... but if i can
control detune from a midi knob-box then i guess velocity control isn't
needed.

i'll agree with you about scrapping the last three.

for now, i'll sit out any ADBSSR/ADSR debates.

mike: next time you appraoch a project like this, do you think you'd
remove the CPU and put a new one on the expansion board?
